how low paid workers got their mitts on ivory mother and babes.
My thought/question is 'How many actual ivory bobbins whether they be mother
and babes or just plain are there?'
Ivory wasn't something readily available in the UK, so how was it obtained
to be used. Bone - yes, lots of them and I know people advertise bobbins
for sale as ivory, but they are more likely bone.
Just my two pence worth.
Malvary in Ottawa where a sunny day with a temperature of 17c is forecast,
